MILES OF BEACH ON SOUTH PADRE

We had the trailer parked by noonish and since the
weather had warmed up from the high 30s in Harlingen to the 60's on the island, it was time to go for a bike ride! 3 miles! And most of it was on the beach.
The entire south end of Padre Island belongs to the county park and campground. The very north end of the island is ALL sand dunes! The middle 4 miles is condo's, motels, marinas and seafood restaurants. Wall to wall and brand new - thanks to all those hurricanes. Built right back on the beaches again. Will people never learn ?? These are eternally shifting sands on this sand bar.
